Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I can indicate to the honourable Member that his region is one of two which has a home boarding counsellor who works for the divisional board. The responsibility of that particular person is to address those concerns which the honourable Member has raised, to raise the concerns and to develop a policy and program which accommodates those students who are from the smaller communities. If there are any concerns, then it would be the responsibility of that person in conjunction with the school board to develop a program and plan to deal with the concerns of the parents. That is the way in which we have dealt with that particular situation in the Deh Cho region, so we can make sure the students are not dissatisfied with the educational programming they are receiving.
